I'm working on an app that matches up new contributors to open source projects who need various grunt work / simple programming done (https://issuehaven.com htt

  You can sort by code which is nice. I would like to suggest sort by “Difficulty” or “effort” as it seems most issues there also have those tags. Will look into it more. Looks good so far

    I'm not quite sure what you mean by that, sorry- the issues are crawled based on a preconfigured list of beginner-friendly tags (see https://github.com/MattAlp/IssueHaven/blob/master/config.py#L32 https://github.com/MattAlp/IssueHaven/blob/master/config.py#...). They're currently sorted based on repository popularity (in stars), issue age, and total comments (I'm working on implementing a better ranking system). How would you propose that I gauge difficulty/effort across board for the aggregated issues?

      I didn't realize the issues presented are already the 'easier' ones... unless I am misinterpreting your website again? For example: 1. https://github.com/coala/coala/issues/5674 https://github.com/coala/coala/issues/5674 On the right hand side it has the label difficulty low, importance high 2. https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/4377 https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/4377 has the label good first issue So labels are not consistent in each of the repositories. And it would be sort of difficult to display a label on each of the issues on your website. But maybe you could display and use the labels the repository is using for your own website (maybe with a toggle). By copying the labels you might not have to gauge difficulty?
